Only managed to lose 1/2 lb this week, I am really struggling :-(

Only lost 1/2 lb today, but have really struggled this week with comfort eating, and it is better than nothing. Congrats to all who have had fantastic losses this week, commiserations to those who have gained, but we have a new week ahead of us, and I really really have to knuckle down and...

Jude, just wanted you to know you aren't alone, I suffer from depression too and since losing my job last month I have comfort ate for England, I am REALLY struggling to stay on Plan - I am not hungry on SW, but I find it a real struggle not to "emotional eat". Anyway, hang in there, take each...

Count me in on this one - I would love to lose 7 lbs before then, even better if it was 8 1/2 as that would take me to 3 1/2 stone loss, but I will definitely aim for the 1 1/2 per week until then and will be made up if I manage that, anything more than that I will look on as a bonus. Sadly I...

Wow some great losses here this week, congrats to you all! And commiserations to anyone who has been disappointed at WI, but that is gone now, onwards and downwards (if you see what I mean!) from today. I lost 1 1/2 this week, a bit disappointed because I have had my best week for months, but...

Hi guys, hope you don't mind if I join. I used to weigh in Tuesday night after work but I got made redundant, and have been going to a Thursday morning class nearer home - not sure how long I will be able to keep going though, with being unemployed. Did really well my first few months but with...

Hi R.G., and welcome to the forum - I am fairly new myself but have found this place invaluable for advice, motivation, recipes, and everything else you need to keep you on track. Good luck at your first W.I., let us know how you get on.

I called it this because every time I make it I seem to throw in everything I have except the kitchen sink! I always have some of this in the fridge for when I am peckish - one pot lasts me about 3 days (2 if I am a Hungry Horace), and is completely free. I use whatever fresh vegetables...

I am like Cai, I never eat bread now, as two mingy little slices would never be enough, I would want the whole loaf and would feel totally deprived at settling for those two - and if I had toast I would have to have butter on it. So it is easier for me just to stay away from it totally. I have...

Hi Emily -there is no reason to e hungry on SW, there is SO much free food - it is the only reason SW works for me as I have a very big appetite. Hopefully as you settle into the plan you will realise how much scope there is and that you need never be bored or eat the same old thing. Don't...

Had some more of the tomato one for my lunch today, was even nicer than it was yesterday :D. Going to have some for my supper tonight too - trying to have as few syns as possible this week, got to get back on track, and this soup is great when I just have to have something savoury :).

Oh wow, hadn't heard about this but I cant wait! I am forever looking up syns online or in my books. I have an Android so will have to wait a bit longer but hopefully it will be worth the wait!

It's just you lol - I haven't seen my outlaws (or my ex husband) for 25 years, and that is definitely a good thing! TPBM loves Barry Manilow

Made the Tomato Soup tonight, threw in a few extras that I had lying in the fridge - peppers, green beans - and I have left it chunky rather than whizzing, and it is absolutely gorgeous! :) Oh, added a spoonful of marmite too, because I am an addict :D

These sound great, and I have all the ingredients for the first one, so going to make it this afternoon.

This sounds fab, will definitely give it a go!

Hi, glad to hear you are feeling better today, but just wanted to say that I totally understand everything you are going through - I am a classic comfort eater and the last 3 months have been SO stressful that I have REALLY struggled and not lost anything like the amount I would have done if I...

Only just seen this thread - wow! Your loss is absolutely amazing, and just what I needed to see as I am really struggling at the mo, and seeing what a difference you have made, makes me want to do that for myself too. Thank you!!

I am starting on Palmers today too, this is an issue that really bothers me - like you Sonya my main worry is the baggy skin at the bottom of my stomach and I can really see this becoming worse as the weight comes off - also the top of my arms. I am dreading losing all this weight only to have...

It does take a while to get your head round the concept of free/superfree foods, sometimes if I know I haven't had enough superfree during the day, I make myself a HUGE salad, with every veg I can find, and pick at that for the rest of the day - seems like I am eating extra food but it does...

Apologies if this has already been asked, but I haven't been able to find anything - I am just looking for any hints and tips to help avoid loose and baggy skin on my stomach, as I have a HUGE amount to lose and as it stands, it is going to leave a load of loose skin on my stomach. Any...

Hahahahaha thank you for the laugh, so glad I joined this place now! At least I know I am not alone in the satisfaction of relieving myself of what sometimes seems like a few pounds - but how annoying when it doesn't happen before WI, like today! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr. By the way, I remember...

Hi Raleigh, I am new to the forum too, and a vegetarian like you, so mostly do green days. I say vegetarian but the last year or so on medical advice I have been trying to have fish 2 or 3 times a week - it almost kills me but I try - so I do EE on those days. I LOVE carbs and eat loads of...

Can I join this team please? I am currently 16 9 1/2 as at WI today, and feel that when I have got into the 15's I will feel I am really on the way. Have had a really bad few weeks healthwise and have struggled to stay on plan but have managed to keep losing a bit, so I really want to focus...

Good luck with the tests Hi Trying Again, just wanted to say not to worry too much if you are diagnosed with diabetes - I was four years ago and as long as you are sensible, you can manage it. Also, the suggestion about anaemia is a good one - I also have pernicious anaemia, and many of your...

Thanks Amanda! I forgot to ask, and would be grateful for any advise on this - where people have their goal weight listed, do some put an interim goal and others their final goal? I have put my final goal but am wondering if psychologically it might be better to put an interim one? In all...

Hi everyone, I have been lurking for a while but decided it was time to actually create a profile and join in. I have been attending Slimming World since Feb this year and have lost 2 stone 8 1/2 lbs to date, but have a LONG way to go. Also, t I am being made redundant so will have to stop...
